;Blue glass statue of a [[unicorn]] - 85000gp : Cast entirely of glass with a bluish tint, this unicorn stands the size of a horse. Its every hair has been etched into the surface of the dark glass, sending sparkling blue light in all directions, and its tail and mane are as detailed as its body. It rears up slightly, horse's head lowered and thrust forward, with its beautiful horn pointed forward, ready to charge. The horn itself is magnificient, for its glass is not just blue but of golden and pink and clear glass swirling together, focussing the light at its tip.
;A statue of an [[angel|angels]] - 8000gp : Not dissimilar in shape to that of a beautiful woman, this statue of a celestial angel is sculpted in a simple and reverent pose. She rests upon one knee, hands folded gracefully upon her thigh,  
;Granite statue of an [[angels|angel]] - 75000gp : Like the priests' guardian angels, this statue is roughly humanoid. The angel balances on one toe, the other leg stretched out as if to leap into the air. To mimic the coruscations of angels, the sculptor has studded the granite with tiny pieces of quartz and glass, and in the daytime, these catch the sunlight and scatter it everywhere, filling the air with tiny rainbows.

;Granite statue of a [[phoenix]] - 80000gp : Granite flames form tiny peaks along the ground, the stone as slim and delicate as actual flames. A bird is in the process of rising from the flames, its head and beak pointed upward, its granite-feathered wings only beginning to unfold. Only half of the bird has risen, but that half reaches nearly a metre high. The span of the wings, even in their halfway-folded state, is impressive, and wider than all but the fattest of men.
;A magnificent statue of a  [[dragon]] - 95000gp : A fraction of the size of a greater dragon, this statue still towers over the tallest of men. Carved from white marble streaked with veins of grey, the creature is depicted with powerful wings
;Full-sized statue of a gilded [[dragon]] - 100000gp : Like any [[Achaean]] dragon, this statue is monstrously large. Its powerful, leathery wings are outstretched, exposing the glinting scales of its back and its large, curled tail. Its head is proud, and the snout is ajar, exposing the rows of teeth. Intended to depict a [[Greater Dragons|Golden Dragon]], the entire statue is gilded, and the scales are shaped so as to play tricks with the light, casting an iridescent sheen over the entire body.
outstretched, sinuous neck arched, and powerful maw slightly ajar. The scales upon the back and elongated tail of the dragon are carved with precision, with not a single detail omitted, giving the piece a more than lifelike appearance.
;Granite [[gnome]] - 25000gp : A tall, peaked cap rises from the head of this gnome, its point falling ever so slightly forward. His face is round, with full cheeks, and a thick, tufted beard trickles down from his chin to the middle of his torso. His body, too, is rounded and fat, in simple pants and tunic. He lies on his side, leaning against a mushroom of the same plain granite, his bare feet wiggled in the air. His eyes twinkle with a perpetual smile.
;A statuette of a rearing stallion - 25000gp :Carved of tawny sandstone and well-polished, this statuette depicts a graceful wild stallion and measures approximately two feet in height. The two hind legs of the steed are firmly planted upon the base, while its forelegs paw at the air. His neck is arched, with a full mane blowing wildly as though stirred by an actual wind. The entire piece is mounted upon a pedestal of fluted stone, pale ivory in hue to complement the warm colour of the figurine.
